Six months out

Well, I can hardly believe that six months have passed. It really does go quickly. I'm down 74 lbs. yaaahooooo. I feel fantastic. I have about 30 more lbs to go and I'm very determined to get there. I'm not quite so strick as I was in the beginning but still working hard at it. I pretty much eat anything now. Dr Aceves said I could start eating salads now which thrilled me to death. Drinking is much easier than it was in the beginning. I can pretty much drink normal now. I haven't had any problems eating anything and have never thrown up or gotten sick from anything I've eaten. I do try to get protiens in first, then veggies and maybe a bite or two of anything else that will fit in. I can eat about 3 oz now which is up from 2 oz from the first 4 months. I can now tell when I'm full and stop right away. To all the people just starting this journey, hang in there....it really does work. :thumbup:
